Are any RB developers out there in this situation:

You have a windows app, it has international users, and it has a 3rd party
library you need to use.

Windows + libraries means you have to use hard-coded paths. International
means you aren't sure what those paths are on the end-users system. For
example, C:\Program Files\<your_software> doesn't exist on French, Italian,
Dutch, Arabic, etc. computers.

What do you do? Or am I the only one running into this situation?

Thanks,

   -k.
